Sparta, Tennessee Speed Traps
State Trooper sits in Captain D’s parking lot facing west.
Appears he is having lunch in restaurant. You are driving east in a 45 MPH zone but at the intersection traffic light the speed drops to 35 MPH. If you speed up to get thru the light he clocks you at 50 in a 35 MPH. If you are getting off Highway 111 north and fail to yield to on coming east bound traffic; you’re his second catch of the day!
